Cops gun down face-eating man

A naked man biting off parts of another man’s face was shot and killed by police Saturday near downtown Miami, WPLG-TV reports.

The man gnawed off parts of the victim’s ear, cheekbone and nose, the station says. Officers said they had no choice but to shoot the attacker because he was enraged and was refusing orders to back off.

“(I saw) a guy on top of another person, eating him up like, just tearing, tearing his face apart,” witness Larry Vega told the station. “It’s going to take some time to forget. I never thought I would see someone else eating someone. It was really, really horrific.”
